Rockford has been one of the most dominant high school football programs in the state of Michigan over the last decade, taking home three of the last seven state titles in Division 1. Despite their success, the Rams have not been known to produce many Division 1 players, but they have one this year in offensive lineman Ben Braden.

The 6-6, 285-pound Braden was one of the standout at the offensive line position during Michigan's summer camp last June. He attended home games at the Big House last fall, and was back in Ann Arbor on Sunday to meet head coach Brady Hoke and his staff.
